Windows 7: upgrading gpu from gts 250 1gb?

Hi time has come to upgrade my bfg gts 250 1gb o/c!
What is the best card to get in the £100-150 mark.
If you look at my specs as i ant a card that will run sweet and give me good fps in skyrim!elder scrools V
(it has to be nvidia)not a fan of radeon

ok im going to throw an ATI card in the mix (as i cant see why anybody isnt a fan or a specific brand as they all do the same thing lol and i chop and change all the time)

the ATI 6850 is about £120, was a good card at launch a couple of years ago, however with recent updates the card is even faster, which rarely happens with updates. it will be all similarly priced Nvidia offerings and is pc formats recommended budget gpu

Most ATI cards are better priced. However, if you are looking for greater compatability with games and certain applications, and better support, Nvidia is the choice card. Nvidia's drivers tend to be better, the software (installation and otherwise) more user friendly, and it tends to be better for anything dealing with 3D pictures (if one might have that capability)
